Numerical Investigation of Spray Formation in Air-Blast Atomizers: Numerical study of air-blast atomization using a hybrid volume of fluid/discrete phase solver

The conducted study investigates the potential of a newly released multi-phase solver to simulate atomization in liquid rocket injectors. The "VOF-to-DPM" solver was used to simulate primary and secondary atomization in an air-blast atomizer with a coaxial injector-like geometry. The solver uses a hybrid Eulerian/Eulerian-Lagrangian formulation...
